MEET DISTINGUISHED SCHOLARS IN THE HISTORY AND ARCHAEOLOGY OF SECOND
TEMPLE JUDAISM AND CHRISTIANITY
World-renowned archaeologist and historian speakers and presenters at
Symposium "Jesus and the Temple" produced by the Institute for Judaism
and Christian Origins, this December 15 - 17 in Boca Raton, Florida.
Symposium sessions are open to the public and free to attend.
FOCUS OF THE SYMPOSIUM
Focal Question: How significantly and in what ways did the Temple and
its cult help define the social and spiritual life of early Jews,
including Jesus and his earliest followers?
Purpose: To correct the popular impression that Jesus despised the
Temple and its cult because he attacked the money changers and was
apparently condemned by the leading high priests [the historicity of
each event must be discussed]. To raise questions which are focused on
pre-70 Jews, Jesus, his followers and the Temple and to seek a new
consensus on the grid questions.

ministers and Rabbis, students, teachers, academics and everyone with
